BEST All Season Natural Homemade Facial

Do It Yourself Facial – Right At Home!
Winters that are cold, full of smog/pollution, and maybe a tad bit dreary.
Summers can clog our skin with sunscreens, repellents and sweat.
This homemade facial is a GREAT solution for any time of the year and the ingredients are readily available; making it easy and quick to put together.
Try this once a week or so before bed. That way, after rinsing it off, it can continue to replenish the moisture that vanishes due to stress, the environment, make up – you know…..life…..

 Here’s some information about the ingredients in this facial:
  Did you know that OATMEAL is amazing for many reasons?

  • It has properties to cleanse
  • It is a natural exfoliate to slough off the dead skin cells.
  • It cleans out pores which invigorates your skin to make it look bright and fresh.
  • It also reduces inflammation which is a primary cause for premature aging skin.

 
HONEY is excellent for your skin because:

  • It helps with acne to treat it and prevent it because it is a natural antibacterial.
  • It opens pores for deep cleaning of toxins
  • It slows down aging of the skin because it is full of antioxidants

It helps with acne to treat it and prevent it because it is a natural antibacterial.

OLIVE OIL is reported to make your skin softer and smoother and is a natural moisturizer.  A quality product (such as my links claim) will not leave a residue on your skin to clog pores.

Now, here is my recipe for this amazing DIY Homemade Facial
(click on the blue titles to see products)
Ingredients:
1 Tbl. Honey
1 Tbl. Olive oil 
1 Tbl. Milk   (use water if you have allergies to milk or dairy products)
2 Tbl. Oatmeal, ground – you can use quick or regular oats, it doesn’t seem to matter the type 
 



Directions:
In a small bowl combine the honey, olive oil and milk.
Mix together well.
Pulverize the oatmeal to a powder in a blender. DIY Facial 2

Apply mixture generously to the face and neck.
Rub gently in circular motions to massage; making sure to do all of your face and neck.
I like to also put a bit on my lips to exfoliate them.

Now rinse your skin really well with warm water. The water needs to be warm enough to dissolve the oil and honey, but not so warm it burns your skin. Pat dry and use your normal skin routine, or allow to sit and rejuvenate your skin. 
This is a terrific way to moisturize and soften your skin on a budget in all seasons.

    Carrie,
    I have always been a big Olive Oil fan. Thanks for sharing your secret for looking so young. I will try this maybe even this weekend.
    Blessings,

  • I love this recipe, Carrie! I use olive oil on my face every day to dissolve makeup, but have never used honey or oatmeal. I am definitely going to give this a try. Maybe this is your secret to looking too young to have any grandchildren! Thanks for sharing with Let’s Get Real. I am pinning this to our group Pinterest board.
